[quote user="Sunnyland"] I  have seen fuel trucks sitting by locomotive in St. Louis when the Eagle arrives in the morning. I'd always look when I crossed 14th St bridge on bus going to work and many times I would see a fuel truck pulled up. [/quote] Thanks for the information.  Fort Worth to St. Louis appears to be well within the range  of the P42 pulling the seven cars of the Texas Eagle.   Several previous posters have noted that Amtrak allocates its fuel costs. That may be.  But it has the fuel tickets from Fort Worth and St. Louis, at least, to test the allocations.   The fuel supplier in Fort Worth is an independent contractor, and I presume the fuel supplier in St. Louis is also.  Accordingly, they would be required to submit an invoice to Amtrak showing the amount of fuel sold, the price per gallon, taxes, etc.  Amtark may not be the shapest business in the country, but even it is not going to pay an invoice without some detailed information.
